Bad ending
It was hard to keep up with and I really hated the way that it ended. I probably won't ever watch it again.

High Life
Robert Patterson gave a great performance as we’ll as Mia Goth. It’s a pretty trippy story line and gives some beautiful imagery. Definitely have to give it a second viewing. A24 studio always gives us some original films. So it’s a movie studio to watch out for. This is the same company that brought imus The Witch, Heredity, The Florida Project, Mid 90s, Midsommar, Under the silver Lake, Lady bird, Moonlight more recently HBO’s Euphoria & the highly anticipated The Lighthouse starting Patterson too along side Willem Dafoe.

I totally understood everything in this movie!
The back of the box describes this as "Monte and his baby daughter are the last survivors of a damned and dangerous mission to the outer reaches of the solar system". I kept waiting for the whole space adventure part of the story to start, but the movie seems to be mainly about bodily fluids and a room with a sex chair. There is actually a spacecraft in the film which can best be described as a "3D Rectangle". Really imaginative stuff here. *SPOILER* In the climax of the film, Monte and his daughter (who have all of 5 minutes of screen time together) enter a black hole for no apparent reason. Thankfully, that was the end. The professional film critics like this movie even more than Interstellar and I totally understand why. It's a confusing, disturbing, and pretentious mess. Film critics love that sort of thing. I don't want anyone to think I'm not smart enough to understand what happened, so I'm giving it 5 stars!

A wonderful movie with few extras
One of my favorites from 2019, High Life is not for everyone. It’s plot is fairly non-existent and the director makes so many strange choices with regard to character building... but my god, this movie is sad. There’s not a lot of hope at the end of this ride through space, except the fact we’re on it together.

Slow Sci-Fi Burn
This is a movie we’ve come to expect from A24 productions. A well acted, intriguing movie, that has a very interesting setting. Takes a little while for the movie to get going, but it’s a decent ride.
